hi guys, some time back some one had adapted a photon xt, to take a 105mm camera lens.
does any one know where I could purchase the adapter ring from to make the photon more useable.
thanks.

well what can i say :D
it did finally stop raining and the 29mm adaptor from srb works perfectly with a 135mm f2.8 and sunnranger bs .
did,nt see any foxes but you can see clearly further than you would ever want to shoot :thumbup:
for anybody with a 4.6xt go for it! fizz is using a 105mm and i also tried a 50mm f1.7 and they all work perfectly.
a big thank you to lenny sch for pioneering this upgrade and fizz for getting it all sorted over here (and for letting me have his spare adaptor )
which i am replacing :thumbup:
night all
